A Slow March Towards Infamy



Last night was a double-bill of baseball practice and alcoholic trivia. Our impromptu baseball practice came about from boredom and the first spell of nice weather in a week. The fields are still wet, as the snow failed to dry them somehow.

Our coalition forces consisted of Dwaine, Matt, Nic, Thomas and myself. We started with a fielding practice, in which Dwaine ran for pop fly after pop fly in a vain attempt at catching them. Understandable since the poor Crazy Dwaine Bird seems to have developed a mild psychosamatic aversion to baseballs, after taking a rather painful fly-ball off the cranium short days ago. Then we proceeded to do some sprints, followed by push-up, v-sits and burpees. After which we played ultimate leap-frog (for some reason poor Nic could never seem to get completely over Thomas!) and then ran 10 full laps of the field. An excellent practice, even devoid of a bat.

Then it was time for Trivia. Special thanks go out to Robert MacMillan for his extraordinary efforts at not only procuring a pitcher but also staking out a prime piece of Myrons real-estate. Special recognition goes out to Nic White for his virginal appearance at Myrons trivia, also for drinking the equivalent to an entire glass of that filthy Clancy's beer. As for the trivia part of the night, we stank. Even with Danial as an ace up our sleeve, we couldn't pull it off. Then as a few pints of beer later, the night came to a screaming halt, as I was faced with driving home and waking up at 6:30.

My apologies to all the mothers of the minors that had snuck into Myrons... I'm very sorry to tell you that your children are the devil. These mischievious minors know who they are...

The following is a grand tale of adventure and courage from our resident columnist Nic "The Whip" White. This article accounts the details of Phase IV of our Baseball Odyssey. (You may also view this article from it's original source at the secure Stratford Message Board.

Well, it was another successful practice today. Even though there was plaenty of snow on the ground and it was still snowing off and on Rob Dwaine and I played on. Chuck and Andrew would have came but were tied up in other matters. Thomas did not come because, well, were not even sure if he made it home from the last practice . We got our arms loose in a certain Christian school parking lot in town, not certain if we were being followed, but we watched our backs. After a two hour practice we headed to get food and then went to Dwaines where we proceeded to look and discuss some posible jerseys for our team. All in all, another good one. We are only getting better.


Unfortunately I missed this practice... Hopefully this damned snow will clear up very soon then we will be able to get down to business! What a slap to the emotions it was to have the greenish brown ground once more blanketed in white! It makes my heart cringe and my soul weep... But enough of the melodrama.

Second backshift in a row tonight, nothing ruins a weekend better! This coming week will be better though, as I have Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday all off!

We NEED a party!

Enough said.
